Robinson packaging is planning to expand in the UK and overseas following a funding package deal with HSBC.

We have secured an eight-figure funding package which will enable us to invest in manufacturing plant and machinery – these growth plans are part of our wider strategy to expand market share in the UK and overseas.

We have been designing and manufacturing packaging for over 175 years across multiple sectors, including food, drink, toiletries, cosmetics and household products.

Guy Robinson, finance director & company secretary at Robinson, said: “We’re very proud of our history here at Robinson, we’ve been a market leader in packaging for many years. However, to remain a market leader we have to look to the future and this requires significant investment in the latest technology. HSBC’s financial backing helps us cement our long term position as a leading plastic packaging designer and manufacturer.”

Guy Rothery, HSBC’s relationship director for west & south Yorkshire, said: “We are delighted to support this historic business with its future development plans both at home and abroad. Robinson has designed and manufactured some of the most recognisable packaging products for over a century. We look forward to a long and mutually rewarding relationship.”
